Commenting on the pivotal role technology is playing in the financial sector, Mr Darraz stressed, “It is technology that is redefining the future of banking and financial sector. We live today in a customer-centric banking environment. It means financial institutions would have to examine the way applications are designed, integrated, managed and structured in terms of shared utility functions and business-focused design and operation.”
“iBanking enables seamless execution and monitoring of day-to-day financial operations as well as data collection and analysis for the purpose of quality reporting and targeted marketing campaigns. Most importantly it is a safer and more efficient way to bank,” he added.
